Abstract

Nanoscience and nanotechnology offer a very good control of the molecular architecture of bio-macromolecules to transform them into smart bio-based nanostructures for different advanced applications. The exceptional surface-to-volume ratio, biodegradability, and renewability of nanofibers obtained from biomolecules intensified their demand. The biocompatibility of biopolymers highlights the uniqueness of different nanofibers obtained from different polysaccharides for various biomedical applications.
